Bandleader Billy Vaughn was a fixture in the US album charts from the late 1950s to the end of the 1960s, with his easy listening interpretations of popular tunes. His most successful release was the chart topping Theme From A Summer Place. (US:1)
“A large string section added to Billy's usual orchestra brought a new lushness and romanticism to themes from Broadway, TV and the movies. This album is truly spectacular. From the Sound Of Music to Some Enchanted Evening, it's a great listening experience you'll want to have again and again.”
“Good times, when music was still there. Today is just rubbish, terrible and diabolical noise.”
“Simply beautiful, the equal of any of the big band leaders, once again timeless and enduring.”
“Theme From A Summer Place forms one of my early boyhood memories. My spirits soared with the opening bars. It's a treasure.”
“The music is very nostalgic for me and I am reminded how much I love instrumental music like this.”
“To say this offering is drenched in strings would be a vast understatement - everything here is so utterly sweet as to be saccharine.”
